Patent EP-0637374-A4 (EP)
Title: High frequency vibration test fixture with hydraulic servo valve and piston actuator.
Inventor: WOYSKI WILLIAM B
IPC: F15B11/15
Filed: 1993-04-20
Abstract: A vibration test fixture includes a reciprocating slip plate carrying an article subjected to vibration and shock testing. A pair of opposed, spaced apart low oil pressure hydrostatic linear bearings support the slip plate during reciprocating single-axis linear travel on the bearings. The slip plate is mounted to each bearing by a single-axis bearing guide system confining the slip plate to reciprocating longitudinal travel on generally planar, two-dimensional bearing surfaces that support the load of the slip plate. The slip plate is reciprocated by a voice coil-driven hydraulic servo valve and double-acting piston actuator integrated into the vibration table between the bearings that support the slip plate. The voice coil connects directly to a pilot valve in the servo valve assembly. The voice coil generates a vibrating linear motion input that reciprocates the pilot valve at controlled frequencies to induce alternating hydraulic fluid flow control outputs from the servo valve for reciprocating the actuator pistons that drive the slip plate. Other embodiments include a multiple-axis, multiple degree-of-freedom vibration test fixture, and a multiple stage hydraulic servo valve that can be integrated into a piston drive system to achieve high frequency and high force levels in a hydraulic vibration test fixture. Combined large acceleration forces up to about 6 g's at high frequencies up to about 2000 Hz can be produced in one embodiment of the invention.

Title: Method for driving stepping motor of multiphase hybrid type.
Inventor: YOSHIMURA NORIYUKI MINEBEA CO
IPC: H02K37/18
Filed: 1994-02-01
Abstract: A motor improved in the torque stiffness, and reduced in the resonance vibration when the motor rotates. The fixed magnetic poles each have two or more small teeth which are arranged at the same interval as the tooth pitch of the rotor. The total number (NS) of small teeth of the stators of an asymmetrical type is determined by NS = 5 x (n0 + n1) (where n0 is the number of small teeth of each of five fixed magnetic poles, and n1 is the number of small teeth of the other five fixed magnetic poles). The stators of asymmetrical type having n1 small teeth are arranged between the stators of asymmetrical type having n0 small teeth. The stators of asymmetrical type having the n0 small teeth are arranged on the side opposite to the stators of asymmetrical type having n1 small teeth across the shaft, respectively. In the winding wound on the asymmetric stator, N and S poles are generated. In both full-step and half-step modes, the numbers of the N and S poles are equal because of the magnetization of the poles in each step.

Title: Improved chemiluminescent 1,2-dioxetanes.
Inventor: BRONSTEIN IRENA
IPC: C07F9/12
Filed: 1994-05-06
Abstract: Novel 1,2-dioxetanes with improved chemiluminescent properties, such as signal intensity, S/N ratio, T½, -etc. are provided by spiroadamantyl 1,2-dioxetanes, wherein the remaining carbon atom of the ring bears an alkoxy, aryloxy, or arylalkoxy substituent, and either a phenyl or naphthyl ring, this aromatic ring bearing, at the meta position on the phenyl group, or a nonconjugated position on the naphthyl ring, an OX moiety wherein X is an enzyme-cleavable group, which when removed from the dioxetane, leaves the oxyanion which decomposes with chemiluminescence, the aryl ring further bearing an electron-active substituent Z. The nature and placement of the Z substituent, at a position not adjacent the point of attachment to the dioxetane ring, strongly influences the properties of the dioxetane. Assays, as well as kits for the performance of those assays, include the dioxetane, an enzyme capable of cleaving the X group, and in certain cases, membranes and chemiluminescent enhancement agents.

IPC: G01K11/16
Filed: 1997-01-15
Abstract: Temperature probes are provided comprising a porous or permeable substrate into which is absorbed at least at the surface a diyne monomer. The absorption is achieved by employing a solution of the diyne monomer in a solvent which is transported by the solid substrate. After impregnation of the substrate, the diyne is polymerized to provide a blue product, which upon being heated above a transition temperature turns to red. Various substrates and devices may be employed for a variety of situations requiring a determination of the occurrence of a particular minimum temperature.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un moteur piezoélectrique comprenant un corps de moteur, une couche compliante en communication avec le corps de moteur, et un nombre prédéterminé de pattes en communication avec la couche compliante, laquelle met les pattes en contact avec un substrat. Chacune des pattes comporte une plaquette piezoélectrique, fonctionnant de préférence en mode de cisaillement. L'actionnement d'une plaquette piezoélectrique entraîne le déplacement de la patte correspondante par rapport à un substrat. Ce déplacement transfère l'énergie de contrainte à la couche compliante. L'énergie stockée dans la couche compliante peut être libérée, faisant ainsi avancer le moteur le long du substrat. Les pattes peuvent être capables de se déplacer indépendamment les unes des autres, sequentiellement ou par groupes ou unités prédéterminés. Les pattes peuvent également être disposées en paires, les paires de pattes étant capables d'actionnemnt simultané. Le moteur est capable de garder une force de maintien élevée en l'absence de puissance absorbée.

Patent EP-1027108-A4 (EP)
Title: Dry pipe valve system
Inventor: BEUKEMA JOHN A
IPC: A62C35/62
Filed: 1999-05-03
Abstract: In the dry pipe sprinkler valve arrangement disclosed in the specification, a dry pipe sprinkler line is normally supplied with air at a pressure in a range from about 5 psi to about 20 psi and is connected through a check valve, a dry pipe valve and a manual control valve to a water supply line. The dry pipe valve has a clapper which is normally retained in the closed position by a latch member. An actuating valve having a diaphragm which receives air pressure from the sprinkler line on one side and engages an orifice to which water from the water supply is applied on the other side permits the latch member to release the clapper when the air pressure falls as a result of opening of a sprinkler in the sprinkler line. When the system is being reset after operation the latch is either automatically movable or manually movable by an external handle to restore the clapper to its seated position without requiring opening of the dry pipe valve housing.
